Description
Polybutylene barrier pipe for hot, cold and central heating plumbing systems
JG Layflat polybutylene barrier pipe coil offers greater flexibility than standard polybutylene and PEX pipe, making long pipe runs and cabling through joists faster and easier. The flexibility of the pipe reduces the need for push-fit fittings significantly compared to traditional copper pipe systems, which in turn delivers labour and cost savings.
When removed from the coil, the JG Layflat polybutylene barrier pipe coil ‘lays flat and stays flat’ meaning there are no issues with the pipe retaining its memory and trying to coil back into place. The pipe is made up of 5 layers, the centre of which is a coloured oxygen barrier to prevent the ingress of air into the system, reducing the effect of corrosion on metal components. Layflat is available in standard UK plumbing sizes that reduces wastage compared to non-UK sizes. Designed, manufactured and assembled in the UK.
Features and benefits
Lightweight flexible pipe makes cabling fast and simple
Less fittings, less labour and material costs, less potential leak points
Safe and non-toxic material with no need for hot works
Resists corrosion and scale build up, reducing pin hole leaks and blockages
Pipe elasticity reduces the chance of burst pipes in freezing conditions
Considerably reduces the noise of water hammer
